Hydrium Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 1: Potato vs 100k Credits 2. 3 Mutagen Mass vs 200k Credits. I don't care how much you pay me, I can get that for free all in a couple hours. Potato I have to pay real money for or wait for an alert. 3 Mutagen mass = 36 hours of my time not including farm time. Another DE implementation that was not thought through.

theasl Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Although, mutagen mass is useless for anyone not in a clan. This event better not be turning clannies against free-roaming players... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scyfle Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 There's also the moral dilemma. Let the sleeping Tenno become experiments or allow the colonies to be enslaved a bit longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luminati07 Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 There's also the moral dilemma. Let the sleeping Tenno become experiments or allow the colonies to be enslaved a bit longer. Let's be honest though...Does anyone actually feel any kind of emotional ties to the game? The "allegiance" mechanic feels so forced that it just detracts from any illusion of "choice" that comes with the event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anatolius Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 its funny how ruk talks about greed THEN EVERYONE PICKS GRINEER CAUSE OF THIS REASON B] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucidity_XD Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 I already have like 45 mutagen mass if I wanted to, but I also don't need credits, so I think I might go corpus to keep my loyalty even between both sides, so I can switch sides at the last second to ensure I am on the winning side.

Wow 45 masses? That's 450 Samples, 11250 plastid, 22500 salvage, and 1350000 credits O.O. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akaahn Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 It's kinda sad that everyone is supporting the Grineer though, their weapon rewards look pretty bad comparet to the Corpus ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuxie Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 The rewards are unfair as hell, although I'm not in current need of any Mutagen mass, DE needs to fix this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This, you're average player is gonna pick the grineer every time, I mean when was the last catalyst alert up? and now that Mutagen Samples are derelict only who wouldn't want 3 free ones, I picked corpus and I plan to stick with it but I have my doubts about them coming out on top in this event.

The "allegiance" mechanic feels so forced that it just detracts from any illusion of "choice" that comes with the event. You know where else theres an illusion of choice in the game? In the event rewards. You get the Grineer T2 and T3 rewards. End of story. Want the Corpus gear? Too bad, DE is going to ensure that Grineer win. Really, I dont even get why they have two sets of rewards. Just have the Grineer set and call the event "taking out the trash for ruk" Why have two sets of rewards when we are basically going to be forced into the T2 and T3 Grineer items? That's like them putting up an item in the marketplace with no price and cant be bought. Why do something so stupid? Oh yeah I forgot, DE loves to antagonize their players.

Oh btw if you hadn't noticed, if the Grineer stomp over the Corpus, we won't have any more Corpus nodes to play on. Think about it now. We as the players do have a choice, just people are being blinded by the first reward and overreacting.

So I fail to see why I should even do anything to begin with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still siding with Corpus. At least those mofo seem more human than Grineer + They speak proper English, while Ruk struggles to puke out a sentence.

VScipii26 Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 The overall rewards, flavor text, key words*, and mission rewards favor the Grineer (Orokin cells, vs. credits, Mutagen vs. Credits, etc.)I think that, simply because the Grineer have better cookies, they'll win these first few parts. The Corpus will have to call the Grineer bet if they want a chance at winning. * "Loyalty" and "Sacrifice" are very charged words, one with a fairly negative connotation and one with a strong positive.
